TF2 didn't even have microtransactions until 2010, and it both pretty much invented them and let you trade/sell them (albeit for steam bucks), so there are definitely worse games you could be throwing money at.
I bought the Orange Box the day it came out, and when I stopped playing TF2 a decade ago I sold all my items (which I mostly got from buying other games that I would have bought anyway), and I ended up with more steam money than I had ever actually spent on TF2 directly.
This post reminded me yesterday that I hadn't played the last DLC they released for it so I did the first scenario in it earlier this morning, and it's still one of the most satisfying games to solve ever. It and Return of the Obra Dinn are seriously in a league of their own.
I don't use game pass, but I would definitely recommend anyone that does try Neon White and The Case of the Golden Idol. I love both of those games.
I had done a few easier Linux installs on Raspberry Pis and VMs in the past, but when I decided I wanted to try using Linux as my daily driver on my desktop (dual-booted with Windows at the time) I decided to go with a manual Arch install using a guide and I would 100% recommend it if you're trying to pick up Linux knowledge. It's really not a difficult process to just follow step-by-step, but I looked up each command as they came up in the guide so I could try to understand what I was doing and why.
I don't know what packages archinstall includes because I've never used it, but really the biggest thing for me learning was booting into a barebones Arch install. Looking into the different options for components and getting everything I needed setup and configured how I wanted was invaluable.
That being said, now that I know how, is that how I would choose to install it? Nah, I use the CachyOS installer now, but if I wanted stock Arch I'd probably use archinstall.
Are you talking about Revengeance? Because Kojima was involved with that game, it just wasn't developed in-house by his studio, and it's a very good game.
The shitty Metal Gear game made without Kojima being involved was Metal Gear Survive.
You're right, nobody can ever know even remotely everything.
Luckily, the same device you used to post that comment can also be used to check if what you are about to say is actually true, so you can prevent yourself from spreading misinformation like this in the future.
Or, he just released it before the DNC because that was when it would have the most visibility. Especially when part of what was released was evidence of the DNC conspiring against Bernie Sanders.
Do you see that as pro-Republican just because it was anti-DNC? You could make the same argument that Bernie told him to release it then because it was so favorable to him.
Uh, if I was about to vote for a presidential candidate, and someone had evidence that person was involved in some kind of misconduct, then I'd certainly rather be aware of that before voting for them than after.
Would you not?
I think Wayland is at point now where I'd be comfortable recommending it to beginners. I'm on nvidia and just switched myself in the past month because I felt like it was finally ready.
To me this is actually a good move for Ubuntu's reputation.
Losing good reputation or losing bad reputation?
Pretty sure they're talking about generative AI created deepfakes being easier than manually cutting out someone's face and pasting it on a photo of a naked person, not comparing Adobe's AI to a different model.
Making content for online is way less work and makes more money in the longrun. You don't get whales spending thousands of dollars on a single player DLC.
